Two labor unions and an advocacy group had filed a complaint claiming that allowing the access would violate the Privacy Act and a federal law. A lower court agreed with the plaintiffs and issued an injunction, and an appellate court also declined to lift the stay. Solicitor General D. John Sauer then appealed to the Supreme Court, arguing that the injunction was forcing the executive branch to stop federal employees tasked with modernizing government systems from accessing the data contained within them.<\/p>\n<p>In Borges&#8217; resignation letter, sent Friday to SSA Commissioner Frank Bisignano, he wrote that he was resigning involuntarily because of &#8220;SSA&#8217;s actions against me, which make my duties impossible to perform legally and ethically.&#8221; He said his departure constituted a &#8220;constructive discharge.&#8221;\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Borges said in his letter that he has faced retaliation since he reported his concerns internally and subsequently submitted his whistleblower complaint. &#8220;I have suffered exclusion, isolation, internal strife, and a culture of fear, creating a hostile work environment and making work conditions intolerable,&#8221; he wrote.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He alleged that &#8220;newly installed leadership&#8221; in the IT and executive offices at SSA &#8220;created a culture of panic and dread, with minimal information sharing, frequent discussions on employee termination.&#8221; And Borges claimed that repeated requests for visibility into activities he found questionable were &#8220;rebuffed or ignored by agency leadership.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Andrea Meza, a GAP attorney representing Borges, said in a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/whistleblower.org\/press\/social-security-whistleblower-resigns-after-revealing-millions-of-americans-data-was-put-at-risk\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">statement<\/a>\u00a0that Borges &#8220;no longer felt that he could continue to work for the Social Security Administration in good conscience given what he had witnessed.&#8221; Meza said Borges &#8220;will continue to work with the proper oversight bodies.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Borges had served as SSA&#8217;s chief data officer since January. Before that, he worked at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and was a White House Presidential Innovation fellow during the Biden administration, according to LinkedIn.
